2022/23 Frank Lampard

Howe went into Newcastle, didn’t go mad last January but bought players good enough to keep them up. Tactically v astute.
set piece specialist, and crossing ability in trippier. Target man in wood to cause panic from these deliveries, and guimaraers proving some quality.
I would say we are stronger than Newcastle we’re in December last season.
A back up target man for Dominic Calvert-Lewin and someone capable of delivering from set pieces and we could “dogs of war“ our way out of this.
Ward-Prouse would be a very good signing but we are not in that market now.
Good point.

All is not lost.

But Frank has got to go long before the window closes if we are to stay up and avoid the end of our club. He’s a decent bloke who clearly loves the club, but he doesn’t realise that he’s completely out of his depth.
 
I like the chap and he arrived with enthusiasm and genuine good intentions to make it work.

The window to sack him has passed to make it effective in my view but he still must depart.

He would not succeed in taking us back up, if anyone can.

I'm skeptical that something will be done now, with the board awol and a seeming resignation to our fate by them.

The time to act was weeks if not months ago. The damage has been done.

I honestly do not think any manager would keep us up under these conditions now.
 

Good point.

Loves the club, you’re joking right? He loves the money. If he loved the club he wouldn’t still be here.
 
Do you seriously think Big Fat Sam would turn down this job?! I even called him a knob head. just saying I’ll take a season of mid table
Why do loads on here jump to conclusions? it's like twitter. Show me where I said I would have him back? I explained previously I would not touch him, in the original post i called him a knob head who didn't care about the club. Of course I don't want him. I'm even unsure on a manager like Dyche cos i'm so against that style of play,

Considering Lampard has resulted to lumping it anyway, getting a manager like Dyche wouldn't be awful cos at least he would play 2 up top, simply lumping it to DCL who has no one to flick it onto is a waste of time.
 

The protesting against the board needs to be put on the back burner, for now. It’s taking the heat off the biggest issue right now and that’s the manager. We keep Lampard we go down, it’s that simple. The immediate campaigning must be to get this manager gone, get someone else in and then refocus on the owner and board at a later date. The immediate priority is to remove the manager while we still have a fighting chance.
 
For those wanting to be choosy over who comes in to save us, nobody wants burly firemen in muddy boots trashing their homes with gallons of water, until there’s a fire of course. Well there’s a fire and it’s going to get muddy.
